HFK HC50 Motorcycle Smart Host User Manual

Warnings and Safety Precautions

WARNING:

1. Please read these instructions carefully before installation.
2. This product supports a 9-36V DC power supply and is designed for use on motorcycles.
3. Turn off the motorcycle's power before installation and turn it back on after completion.
4. When installing the camera bracket, ensure the area is clean. Vehicle waxing may affect adhesion. Heating the 3M sticker with a lighter or hot air gun before installation can improve adhesion.
5. Contact with chemical reagents or corrosive liquids is strictly prohibited.
6. The HC50 camera is fully sealed and waterproof. Avoid contact with solvents like cleaning naphtha, alcohol, or tar detergents on the lens to prevent damage to the waterproof layer.
7. For storage speed and security, please clean the Micro SD card regularly.

Installation Guide

Main Host Installation

The main host bracket can be rotated in multiple directions and angles. Select the installation position and adjust the angle before tightening the screws. Use the appropriate spacer for your handlebar diameter (22mm, 25mm, or 28mm). No spacer is needed for a 32mm handlebar.

Front and Rear Camera Installation

The camera bracket kits can be installed in various orientations (upright, side, inverted). Ensure the arrow marking is at the top when installing the camera. Use M3*10mm inner hexagon screws for the camera bracket and M4*25mm inner hexagon screws for mounting.

The Installation Drawings

This section details the components and connections for the HFK HC50 system. Key components include the HC50 Main Host, power cable, short and long wire cameras, and connection cables for cameras and power. Ensure correct alignment of card slots and colors when connecting cables. The power cable connects to the battery and ACC. The rear camera is installed at the rear of the vehicle, and the front camera is installed at the front of the motorcycle.

Note on Power Connection: Connect the ACC signal line to the motorcycle's ACC power for automatic power on/off with the ignition key. Alternatively, connect to the motorcycle's positive power terminal, requiring manual power control. Remember to shut down the device when the motorcycle is off to prevent battery drain. It is recommended to connect to the motorcycle ACC power supply.

Note on Camera Cables: Camera cables are available in short (1m) and long (2.9m) lengths. Choose the appropriate length based on the host's position. Distinguish between the F (front) and R (rear) camera interfaces on the host when connecting.

Introduction of Main Host Screen Interfaces

The device displays various interfaces including:

• Status Bar: Shows GPS signal, low temperature, fatigue driving, tire pressure fault, screen lock, subtotal mileage, recording status, ambient temperature, WiFi status, Bluetooth status, capture, video lock, real-time, compass, current speed, front/rear tire pressure values, and front/rear tire temperatures.
• Heading Indicator Interface: Displays heading, speed, GPS altitude, latitude/longitude, and ambient temperature.
• Comprehensive Data Interface: Shows speed, highest speed, mileage, altitude, air pressure, and ambient temperature.
• My Journey Interface: Displays total mileage, total time, average speed, highest altitude, highest speed, and ambient temperature.
• Speed Interface: Shows current speed, highest speed, altitude, GPS altitude, and ambient temperature.
• Tire Pressure Interface: Displays front and rear tire pressure values, tire temperatures, and ambient temperature.
• Screen Casting Interface: Allows connection to CarPlay, HiCar, CarLink, and Android Auto. Initial connection requires following on-screen steps; subsequent connections are one-click.

Note on Status Bar Icons: Icons appear only when the corresponding state is active.

Note on Speed Interface: Without a paired tire pressure monitor, speed interface displays top speed.

Remote Control Matching

HC50 and Wireless Remote Control Matching Operation:

1. Enter System Setup > Accessories > Remote Control option.
2. Click 'Start Matching' to enter matching mode.
3. Press and hold the 'camera button' and 'video lock button' on the remote simultaneously. The remote's indicator light will flash five times. A 'Matching Success' message will appear on the host screen upon successful pairing. Repeat if matching times out.

Note: Wireless remote control is an optional accessory. Refer to the remote control manual for detailed operations.

Tire Pressure

HC50 and Tire Pressure Monitor Matching Operation:

1. Enter System Setup > Accessories > Tire Pressure Matching option.
2. Click 'Front Wheel Matching' or 'Rear Wheel Matching' and confirm. The screen will display 'Front Wheel Matching in Progress' or 'Rear Wheel Matching in Progress'.
3. Screw the tire pressure monitor onto the corresponding tire valve until tightened (or unscrew from the valve). Upon successful matching, the host screen will display 'Front Wheel Matching Successful' or 'Rear Wheel Matching Successful' with three beeps.
4. After successful matching, the host screen will display the corresponding tire pressure values for the front or rear wheel.
5. Click 'Delete Matching' to clear a matched tire pressure monitor.

Note: A 20-second interval is required between successful matching operations. Repeat if matching times out.

Threshold Settings for Front or Rear Wheels: Set maximum and minimum alarm values for tire pressure. If tire pressure exceeds the maximum or falls below the minimum limit, a prompt will appear with beeping sounds.

Alarm Prompt Switch: Enables alerts for abnormal tire pressure or lost tire pressure signals. Default is off; automatically turns on after successful tire pressure monitor matching. Requires a matched monitor for alarm functionality.

Tire Pressure Interface Switch: Enables the 'Tire Pressure Display Interface'. Default is off; automatically turns on after successful tire pressure monitor matching. Requires a matched monitor for data display.

Video Recording Tire Pressure Display Switch: Displays front and rear tire pressure information on the camera interface when enabled.

Troubleshooting

1. Device not powering on after motorcycle start: Check power connections.
2. Cannot power on by pressing the power button: Check power connections.
3. No display from front (F) or rear (R) camera: Swap cameras to diagnose. If the issue follows the camera, the camera may be faulty.
4. No display from both front (F) and rear (R) cameras: Check camera cable connections.
5. Blurry video recording: Clean the camera lens for dust.
6. No sound in recording: Ensure the microphone is not muted.
7. Videos locked during normal riding: Adjust G-sensor sensitivity. Change from 'Integrated general road' to 'Bumpy mode'.
8. Recording video unlocked during motorcycle collision: Check if the G-sensor is 'ON'. If so, set sensitivity to 'Urban road' mode.
9. Device crashed or frozen: Long-press the Home button for ten seconds to restart the main unit.
10. Electromagnetic interference (stripes or purple grain) on display or recording: Check motorcycle spark plug model (use R-rated resistive spark plugs). Ensure camera cables are routed smoothly, not folded, with sufficient slack, and not tied too tightly or squeezed by the motorcycle shell.
